    Resolved Resist destroy magic and ritual backlash question

    I have a couple of questions about resist destroy magic. In the CMA resist DM says choose immediately when the item is hit by DM. Is the intent that you can only resist a DM that targets the same item the resist is cast on? Resist DM can target a spirit. Would you then read item as spirit so you...

    How does copy formal magic work at the national event?

    I want to cast some copy formal magic rituals at the national event. Will the resulting scrolls be XR? Does it matter if the copy is from AGB (like would the resulting scroll also be AGB)? Does it matter if I am copying a mist touched scroll (like an AGB copy cast on a mist touched preserve)...

    Looking for help with a crafting example

    Hi friends, Having read the final 2.1, I'm not sure I get how crafting works. Let's say I have alchemy 20. I spend all 20 points things other than CAE. I still get to craft 20 points' worth at logistics, right? I just need 20 crafting materials or a toolkit and a gold piece. Without the...

    General crafting and alchemy specific points questions

    When you buy a production skill, you get 1 crafting point for 2 purchases and 1 ability point for each purchase? For example: Alchemy 20 (I'm trying to build around effective antidote) I get 10 crafting points and 20 ability points. 10 crafting points: I can make 2 antidotes and have 2 points...

    Idea for collecting playtest feedback data

    The purpose of this post is to provide a framework for playtest feedback based on the stated intentions for the new rules. Normally, it would be better to do this kind of work before writing and testing new rules. Also, it would be better to have started with performance objectives. But I think...

    character class roles with the new rules

    I wanted to split this conversation off from the character build thread so that Matt's thread can stay focused on the original topic:

    Which performance problems and opportunities should the new rules address

    When I playtested the new rules, I was unclear on some of the reasoning behind the changes. Sometimes I could figure it out. For example, "The intent was to streamline the system by reducing effects which were very similar to other effects without losing the flavor of the system long-term...

    What makes combat encounters hard to scale? Who trains new characters?

    People suggesting level caps have said that level disparity makes combat hard to scale. I think levels are probably one of the easiest things to overcome when scaling an encounter. I think a few things have a much bigger impact: magic items, monster abilities, OOG individual skill, and...

    Is it too hard to spirit forge and/or race change?

    It came up on the thread about power disparity when MS argued that optimal builds would be more in demand if a level cap existed. A few people suggested that it should be easier for players to spirit forge or sell back certain skills. Interestingly, I remember having a similar discussion around...

    What can plot do to help high level players contribute to the game?

    Related to the do they die enough thread (which was split from the necro thread). I don't think it matters for high level players die more, though highbies should feel challenged to achieve their goals just like everyone else at an event. In combat and some other challenges the risk of rezzing...

    Sources of political intrigue

    One thing that I like in LARPs is political intrigue. What intrigue do we have in different chapters and how do we get more? In our Alliance games, it always seemed to me that chapters with the more rigid nobility have less intrigue. If there are no political factions, there's less politics...

    Physical challenges - how have you seen them done?

    I think we should have more physical challenges. For part of the player base it gives them a chance to shine outside of combat (although it may be that the same players who shine in combat can also shine in other physical challenges). Plus physical activity is good. It's one of the things we (I...

    Sneakers, boots, cleats, or costume footwear?

    At the last event I attended, I think the majority of people were wearing sneakers. Some modern boots, a couple cleats (soccer maybe), and a couple medieval looking costume shoes. I'm curious what you wear and what you see and what you prefer. With decent costume shoe covers, I think sneakers...
